Positive:

- Just got a debt upgrade from S&P to investment grade
- Strong exporter, profits from weak dollar
- Less cyclic, more defensive stock

Negative:
- Chart: no longer in uptrend channel, close to long-term resistance
- Tyson family is just selling 3 million shares
- High input commodity prices problematic
